Polarized inelastic neutron scattering of the partially ordered Tb2Sn2O7
Abstract
We present inelastic neutron scattering results on the geometrically frustrated pyrochlore Tb2Sn2O7. At high temperature T>50K, this system resembles the cooperative paramagnet Tb2Ti2O7, while at low temperature T∼60mK, it displays remarkably different behavior. Powder neutron scattering, susceptibility, and specific heat techniques have shown that below 0.87K Tb2Sn2O7 enters a partially ordered state that is characterized by two-sublattice …
